Why Don't I Do This More Often?

Sep 15, 2005 01:58

So, after a rousing chorus of "Wait... you moved to Edinboro in July & you *still* haven't been to the Keg? What's up with that?" in the studio, I opted to cut out of the studio a bit before 9 & went on over to enjoy our favorite drink special ( Read more... )

thyroid, keg

I would agree about guys being intimidated by smart women. I have had men get pretty snotty with me once they realize that I have a pretty good brain. They'd rather put me down or ignore me than admit I'm smart.

A big fat *What-EVER* to that! Who needs 'em.

Who says women can't be smart AND sexy?

unnamed525 told me the other day that his favorite feature of mine is my mind. Awww... :) (Of course, he was attempting to divert my attention from the fact that I had just figured out that his favorite *physical* feature of mine is my ass. Hee!)

Hahaha, I HATE it when people do that. it's even more annoying when they ASSUME you are together and just starting talking to the guy like that. And you're like... Hey, I can hear you and speak, too... hehe.

Rootbeer is great. Hope things go okay with yu!

The only justification that I could vaguely ascribe that behavior to is politeness toward your companion-talking directly to you initially as opposed to him could be seen as disrespectful to your companion, presuming you two were together to begin with, as in 'horning in on his date'(this is also known as the Mating Dance of the Wild Redneck).

Ooh, I could see that point -- you don't want to go up to her and go, "So, you taken by that jerk, or you free?" right away. This is something I had never considered. But then, I rarely assume that just because someone is talking to me directly they are flirting with/pursuing me, so it wouldn't occur to me to feel like the other person was horning in on me. But a lot of women might, so maybe it IS best guys be careful.

They just need to realize that one question is fine, but they can't hold a whole conversation about you as if you are a deaf and mute object.
